Good weather coming this weekend

I  bring some good news – after a cold front brings a lot of rain to Tennessee early in the week, we have some fantastic weather coming from Thursday through Saturday with sunshine, lower humidity and cooler nights.

We could see some nights in the upper 50s at the end of the week – great weather for football after lightning caused some problems this past Friday.

It is not unusual at all to get a little cooler weather at the start of September. Look for highs in the low to mid-80s and a few scattered afternoon thunderstorms for the first week of September. Sunrise is now 6:09 a.m. with sunset at 7:13 p.m.

You can really notice it is getting darker earlier. With the clear nights later in the week, there will be lots of stars visible with the planets Jupiter and Saturn side by side in the southern sky.

Next week I will tell you how August temperatures and precipitation compared to normal and tell you what the extremes are for the month of September. I can tell you that in the last 50 years, we have seen everything from 100 degrees to frost during the month so there are lots of possibilities in the weeks ahead.

 

 

As expected, the tropics are getting much more active with the gulf and Caribbean being at risk this month and the east coast in October.
